Possible Type Improvement in CannyEdgeDetector.cs:182 #139

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I think you could slightly improve the speed of the Canny Edge Detector in 
Sources/Imaging/Filters/Edge%20Detectors/CannyEdgeDetector.cs

Line 182 reads "double gx, gy;".
Those variables could be switched to int without loss.
Just be sure to change line 231 to "double div = gy / (double)gx;".

Other remarks :
- At lines 313 "p=0" and 319 "for ( int x = startX; x < stopX; x++, dst++, p++ 
)" the variable p is iterated but not used in this last loop.
- The hysteresis in step 4 is does not follow 
http://www.pages.drexel.edu/~weg22/can_tut.html as one would expect from the 
documentation. Line 
330 reads "// check 8 neighboring pixels" although the expected algorithm would 
truly follow edges, as featured at 
http://fourier.eng.hmc.edu/e161/programs/canny/hysteresis.c 
Although the current hack is more efficient, it should be documented.

Will the suggestions ...

One thing to note. With tracking systems there is usually one simple rule - one 
issue per ticket. It makes it simpler to track, fix, etc. What if something can 
be done for next release, but something can not? Etc.

All Done.

Few minor improvements to CannyEdgeDetector:
1) changed from double to int type for those variable, which are really integer;
2) removed incrementing index variable, which is not used inside of a loop;
3) clarified documentation about hysteresis.

Committed in revision 1271. Will be released in version 2.1.3.

Thank you for your feedback.
